Blockbuster Futures, For the Family Mega Marathon: Fast, Furious, Full-Throttle

Genres:

Hunted by their biggest baddie bent on revenge yet, Dom and crew fight to keep the family together in an in-your-face assault of awesomeness.

What better way to kick off our Blockbuster Futures conference than to highlight the global phenomenon that is the Fast & Furious Saga?! Each marathon day includes five films for $20, with day one and day two tickets sold separately.

Snacks, drinks in resealable/enclosed containers (there are no cupholders in the Cinema!), and finger foods that do not emit a strong odor will be allowed for this event. Alcohol, cigarettes, electronic cigarettes, and illicit drugs are prohibited at IU Cinema.

Targeted by a cold-blooded black ops assassin with a score to settle (Jason Statham), Dom and the Fast family's only hope is to get behind the wheel again and secure an ingenious prototype tracking device. Facing their greatest threat yet in places as far away as Abu Dhabi and as familiar as the Los Angeles streets they call home, the crew must come together once again as a team, and as a family, to protect their own. Tragically, in November 2013, actor Paul Walker (who portrayed Brian O'Conner) died in a car accident at during post-production of Furious 7. After pushing the film's release, the production used CGI and family members to complete Walker's scenes following his shocking death. While O'Conner would remain an off-screen story presence in future films, Dom says goodbye to his on- and off-screen friend and brother with one last ride. [137 min; action, crime, thriller; English, Thai, Arabic, and Spanish with English subtitles]

"It’s an enormous, steroidal blast, and as much ingenious fun as a blockbuster can be." — Richard Corliss, Time

"For all the full-throttle dazzle of Furious 7, the best scenes are the quietest ones, in which these characters make observations about love, life, and family that would seem overcooked in any other movie." — Stephanie Zacharek, Village Voice

"Furious 7 is at turns a celebration and a farewell, a film that goes for broke in using its many seemingly forgettable bits of established canon to tie together all of the films and pay its respects." — Dominick Suzanne-Mayer, Consequence
